Well, he thinks there are "very good people" on their side and he shows an affinity for the things THEY want done, an America controlled by whites. Get rid of as many "coloreds" as possible, make it a "white Christian MAN'S" country, He must have them somewhat confused by backing the JEWS like he is, but, that's likely just to keep the nasty Muslims in control … maybe.

Klan leader claims KKK has given $20K to Clinton campaign ‘For the KKK, Clinton is our choice’ By Andrew Blake - The Washington Times - Tuesday, April 26, 2016 Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign has received more than $20,000 in donations contributed by members of the Ku Klux Klan, a prominent member of the hate group said Monday. “For the KKK, Clinton is our choice,” said Will Quigg, California Grand Dragon for the Loyal White Knights, Vocativ reported. Mr. Quigg, the leader of the Klan’s California chapter, announced last month that he had abandoned supporting Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump in lieu of backing his likely Democratic opponent. The Klansman claims that members have raised more than $20,000 for Mrs. Clinton and have donated it anonymously to her campaign. “She is friends with the Klan,” Mr. Quigg told Vocativ. “A lot of people don’t realize that.” Clinton campaign spokesman Josh Schwein disputed the grand dragon’s claim and said the former secretary of state has rejected the group’s endorsement. “This is completely false,” Mr. Schwerin told Vocativ. “We want no part of them or their money and vehemently reject their hateful agenda.” The Clinton campaign has “not received anywhere close to $20,000 in anonymous donations in total, [so] it is impossible that they are telling the truth,” Mr. Schwerin added. According to Vocativ, Federal Election Commission filings suggest the same. Nevertheless, Mr. Quigg claims that the presumptive Democratic candidate’s agenda aligns with the Klan‘s. “All the stuff she’s saying now, she’s saying so she can get into office, OK?” Mr. Quigg said. “She doesn’t care about illegal immigrants — she’s acting like she does so she can get into office. Once she’s in office, then she’ll implement her policies. She’s a Democrat. The Klan has always been a Democratic organization.” David Duke, a former Republican Louisiana State Representative who previously held the title of Grand Dragon of the state’s Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, came out in support Mr. Trump’s campaign earlier this year, prompting Mr. Trump to publicly repudiate the endorsement. Mr. Trump “couldn’t run this country more than he could run a county,” Mr. Quigg told Vocativ. “He knows nothing about politics, or about foreign affairs. He went to Israel and almost got thrown out.” Copyright © 2018 The Washington Times, LLC. Click here for reprint permission.

The Clintons are gone. Mr. Quigg can make any statement he wants, I don't believe just "any" statement by "any" crackpot or person with an agenda. I agree with the statement that "…. he couldn't run this country more than he could run a county, he knows nothing about politics or foreign affairs. Netanyahu obviously didn't try to throw him out. I'll have to have more than HIS accusation that the Clintons back the KKK. That indirectly supports Trump and I think that's exactly what he is trying to do. The Klan was a "SOUTHERN" Democratic supporter. The rest of the Democrats threw them out and they were welcomed by the Republicans with open arms. The south has been largely Republican ever since. We still say "good riddance". The Clintons LOST the election. They are GONE! Why can't conservatives recognize this? Mr. Quigg said: (allegedly), A lot of people don't realize that." He must have been talking about conservatives?? Every statement he made shoots down the Democrats …. I think that's exactly what he was trying to do …. that strengthens their REAL allies, the conservatives! Side: Yes

The KKK is a Democrat Party institution. They created it, voted for Robert Byrd for 60 years up until 2010, it donates to both parties, and the KKK claims no political party lines today.

Not thats been proven, no. The KKK was formed because they felt that whites were being oppressed during reconstruction in the south. That’s just the racist part of it. They were formed originally formed as a “book” club. As the group grew, they turned into the racist monstrosity they are now. Side: No

This is the analogy I keep giving to Democrat voters, but they lack the honesty to respond. I give this analogy to the so called phony people who say they are pro life, but still vote for the Democrat Party... What would you say to some Republican voter who voted for a KKK member, but then said he was not racist? Would you swallow that load of garbage? NO! I also refuse to swallow the load of garbage from a person who claims to be pro life, but votes for this Democrat Party that supports No Restriction abortions. A person with an ounce of decency, compassion, tolerance, could never vote for politicians who support inhumanity towards others. So tell me, do you have ties to abortions when you vote for this extreme No Restriction abortion Democrat Party? Side: No
